To be fair Joe i think the GPS or Google puts the Pointers
in the wrong places.

The Entrance seems too far into the Grass Area.
The Shaft Exit is almost behind the "Cock Pit"
And the Rods Entrance well that could be anywhere?

Ive put together where i think they are the Markers.
The Entrance (Green Marker)
The Shaft Exit (Red Marker)
And the Exit we never found in the Blue Area.
We are Told you could see it from the Bus Stop?

Anyway this is my guess at an overlay of your map.
Ive had to stretch it a little to make it fit, but is
not a million miles from what we found anyway.

The Green and Red Markers we do know are there.
And its them i used to pull the map into shape.

It will be the GPS at fault (possibly Google as well tbh but deffo the GPS) as Civillian units struggle to pinpoint exact locations. They give a good and pretty precise idea, but precise to them is within a couple of metres.

I've just been given more information tonight about 3 arches
which is where we have the dog leg exit marked.

Apparently they were big enough to reverse a Army Truck
Full of ammo.

Hopefully will be given a guided in about an hour fingers crossed.

When he said ammo it was in the context of that if you had an ammo truck you could have reversed that into the arches they were that big smile

Could these be a lead off to another set of tunnels ?

Ha well, i looked high and low in the same area for the
dog leg exit and didn't see anything.

But he seems to think he could walk right up to where they are even if there buried by soil etc..

There's no ammo there only large openings that he was explaining
the size of the arches to me. Baring in mind that he was a kid
when he seen them.

But that's two different people that have mentioned Arches?

And when he was a kid they were BRICKED UP SOLID.

And that may be one of the reasons that the DOG LEG Steel Exit Door was so solid with no Echo.
